When would I need to call base() in C#?
- by user310291
My BaseClass Constructor is called whereas I have a constructor in derived class so when would I need to call base() ?
class BaseClass
{
public BaseClass() {
Debug.Print("BaseClass");
}
}
class InheritedClass : BaseClass
{
public InheritedClass()
{
Debug.Print("InheritedClass");
}
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
InheritedClass inheritedClass = new InheritedClass();
}
Output
'Inheritance.vshost.exe' (Managed (v4.0.30319)): Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.Net\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Accessibility\v4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a\Accessibility.dll'
